The only thing that, unfortunately, kept me from reading this for a while were the many complaints about "the twist" (or, the ending -really, they mean the twist a chapter or two before the ending). However, It is definitely a possibility if you pay attention.
I admit that Looseboy's Sharin no Kuni had a more plausible twist, a cleverer one, one that didn't rely on misdirection, but this one wasn't bad.
And, ultimately, this is just one part of the 34 hour long v novel.
Looseboy may be the only vnovelist I've read who could have literary aspirations. He elevates the entire v novel koom form. All his characters are alive, often with hidden drives that completely oppose their surface nature.
His dialogues are clever, witty, often ironic. I recall one scene where he thinks Usami is acting like a "tragic heroine", amusing asides about others' self-narrativization, these are part of what Elevates his Work.
But his greatest gift is in construction. All relations have a point, every event, every bit of history, how these gradually enter the story, or are revealed, have a purpose.
However, much of his skill in form and logic is here restricted to making Holmes-Moriarty battles of wit in a "cat-and-mouse game". These scenes precede Talentless Nana, but are totally absent from Sharin no Kuni.
Even though I write about strukture and pseudointellectual things, the story is gripping and emotional.
To conclude,
in my humble opinion, God gripped Looseboy's fingers as marionette for each keystroke. Read it NOW!
